Summer vacation season is here. But what if you're looking to stay close to home?

WalletHub put together a list of the best and worst cities for a staycation. To create the ranking, the site looked at 182 cities across three categories: recreation, food and entertainment, and rest and relaxation.

Don't bother booking a plane ticket if you live in one of these 10 cities that top the list.

Honolulu ranked first in recreation, while Orlando has the most zoos and aquariums and frozen yogurt and ice cream spots per capita. For outside sipping, Portland topped the list of most beer gardens per capita.
